Thanks for the information. You are the second person that I've spoken to testify to the gradual effect of Fluoxetine. The other person made the same statement about just waking up one day and realizing that they felt great! What was the dose that you were taking? How are you doing on Celexa? I really thank God for people on this site who are so willing and eager to help :)
